So, after the last post, Danny provided me with the most wonderfully huge towel, and taught me some of the voodoo required for controlling the shower. He then conjured up some yummy pancakes and amusing stories for breakfast 
Afterwards, we curled up on the couch to watch Futurama DVDs. What a great way to spend a St Patrick’s Day I met up with Donal and Sonya for coffee in Java’s in the afternoon, and Colm appeared shortly thereafter. Steve brought us out to Eddie Rockets, where a most enjoyable dinner was had, and then returned us to Dromroe, where connectivity was stolen
Eventually, we headed out to Jury’s, checked in, enjoyed the luxury of a bath (showers are all very well, but…), and watched dodgy TV. Breakfast on Saturday was late – half one, to be precise But it left us time to go shopping, and find two new jumpers for Colm. We ate in the Wild Onion, and then ate some more, and some more It was sooo, soooo good though Yay for Wild Onion.
The journey back to Dublin was mostly uneventful, with only a few niggles. Why on earth is Southbound translated to O Dheas, and Northbound to O Thuaidh? There were other ones, but I was sleepy, and have since forgotten what they are… We did more shopping in Dundrum when we got home, and rounded off the evening with yet another DVD – Elf. It’s definitely a fun, if somewhat cheesy, and completely out of season, movie.
And now it is Sunday, and I am beginning to panic over my essay & presentation for the Blockseminar I’m doing in two weeks. So I will go, and procrastinate.
